"The Clones Revealed" (Released)

hey JD, did you watch the workprint yet?

question for Sluggo and Russ, I know Russ picked up on it but how obvious is it in those cases that I've re-edited scenes? For example, I've lost the entire fireplace scene, and tinkered with the Geonosis battle something rotten. I'm asking simply because I'm going through said battle again at the moment (hopefully for the last time!!) and it's become apparent to me that I've pretty much re-edited the whole thing to make it easier to show what I need to show. When I originally did The Sith Revealed I simply pasted the BTS video over the audio track, but whilst TCR is essentially more of the same, the amount of extra work I've done, i.e .looping audio, making use of soundtracks and effects, slowing video, and loads more - is unbelievable. It blows my minds that the very first post in this thread was over a year ago!!

I know I've still got a lot of work to do on this project. I'm 40 minutes from the end of my final (and I mean final) run through of the main video, then I need to go through it again whilst comparing it to my library of stills to see if theres anything I meant to include but missed, then add some final sound fx, then export it, then learn how to add subtitles, then author the DVD - and this in itself will probably be a hell of an undertaking with the things I've got in mind...the only thing I wish I could do is animated DVD menus...ah well, I suppose I can only do so much. I've only got this far by playing it by ear!

Don't really know why I'm blabbering on here or what the point of this post was....but I've spent all afternoon working on this thing and just wanted to have a natter about it!

i considered this same thing for the end of TCR, and the conclusion I came to is that whilst I have nothing against my real name being attached to my work, it's 'daveytod' that I go by on every message board I visit, and if anyone was looking for my stuff it would be daveytod that they try and find. plus when people here see 'sluggo' rather than 'bob jones' they know who it is

I took all manner of drugs, big n small, throughout all of my 20's and gave everything up when I hit 30 (was getting a bit boring by then anyway) and to quote the late great Bill Hicks - "never robbed andbody, never beat anybody, never killed anybody, never raped anybody, didn't lose one job....laughed my aass off...and went about my day!"
